how much longer?
 

hi i started my application in october 2009 we had a few hik ups along the way. we started off with WA granting us state sponsorship in july 2010 but then had to wait for the elections to finish then for the new S.M.P to be published. WA then took my occupation off its smp but would honor my state sponsorship but I would be pushed down the order of priorties I am currently waiting for a CO.
In the mean time my agent has suggested that I try for state sponsorship with South Australia as my occupation is on there S.M.P and this could be a faster route in to Australia. could anyone please help me how long would it take to gain state sponsorship with South Australia and after that how long till I would be granted my visa.
